For the plots that incorporate harmonic perturbation, small-signal analysis, or prestressed analysis, additional settings display in a variety of plot windows in an Expression evaluated for list:
Select an option from the Expression evaluated for list: Static solution, Harmonic perturbation, Total instantaneous solution, Average for total solution, RMS for total solution, or Peak value for total solution. Each option is described below.

See Built-In Operators for information about the operators described in this section.

If Harmonic perturbation is selected, the Compute differential check box is also available. If the check box is not selected, the expression is evaluated by taking the values of any dependent variables from the harmonic perturbation part of the solution.
If the Compute differential check box is selected (default), the differential of the expression with respect to the perturbation is computed and evaluated at the linearization point. This is achieved by wrapping the expression in the lindev operator. For expressions that are linear in the solution, the two options are the same.
The expression is evaluated by adding the linearization point and the harmonic perturbation and taking the real part of this sum. This is achieved by wrapping the expression in the lintotal operator. The phase and amplitude of the harmonic perturbation part can be set in the corresponding data set.
This is the same as evaluating for Total instantaneous solution and then averaging over all phases of the harmonic perturbation. This is achieved by wrapping the expression in the lintotalavg operator.
This is the same as evaluating for Total instantaneous solution and then taking the RMS over all phases of the harmonic perturbation. This is achieved by wrapping the expression in the lintotalrms operator.
This is the same as evaluating for Total instantaneous solution and then taking the maximum over all phases of the harmonic perturbation. This is achieved by wrapping the expression in the lintotalpeak operator.
